The reasons for the malfunction of the GAC GS8 reversing camera module are as follows: 1. The camera is damaged or blocked. If the camera is damaged, the image cannot be uploaded to the computer, so it will not display. If foreign objects block the camera, it will show a black screen. 2. The display screen is damaged. When the display screen remains black or shows a distorted image, it indicates that the module is damaged and needs to be inspected and repaired at a repair shop or 4S store. Here is some extended information about the reversing camera: 1. The reversing camera is also known as the parking assist system, or the reversing visual system, or the vehicle monitoring system. English name: vehicle-back-up-camera. This system is widely used in various large, medium, and small vehicles for reversing or driving safety assistance. 2. The reversing camera system can provide a clear view at night through infrared rays. Professional vehicle probes have further improved anti-magnetic, anti-shock, waterproof, and dustproof performance.
As a long-term owner of the GAC GS8, I’ve encountered several issues with the reversing camera, which can be quite frustrating. The most common cause is dust or rainwater covering the camera lens, affecting image clarity. Another frequent issue is loose wiring connections—frequent opening and closing of the trunk can loosen the wires, leading to signal interruptions. The module itself might also fail due to overheating or aging, especially when exposed to scorching sun in parking lots during summer. Failed software updates or compatibility bugs can cause the system to freeze. Additionally, improper wiring during vehicle modifications can trigger conflicts. My personal advice is to regularly clean the lens, check the tightness of connectors, and park in shaded areas to prevent module overheating. If the camera display fails, try restarting the infotainment system first. If that doesn’t work, visit a professional repair shop for diagnosis—don’t compromise on reversing safety. These small tips have helped me and fellow owners avoid many pitfalls.
